MOOC – video games and learning kick off meeting
Introduction of MOOC-OER Initiative and Coursera Platform by American Spaces Thomas Jefferson Information Center
Introduction to Online Learning
Online courses differ from classroom courses in having a more flexible schedule, student-centered learning approach, emphasis on textbook-driven learning over lectures, and greater reliance on written communication and technology. To succeed, online students must be flexible, self-motivated, and self-directed; willing to do extensive reading and writing; and comfortable with technology. They typically spend 6-8 hours per week reading, completing assessments, participating in discussions, and working on papers and presentations. Grading follows the same scale as classroom courses, with assignments listed in the syllabus or clearly marked. Students are encouraged to start major assignments early, treat their online coursework like scheduled meetings, and seek help promptly if needed.
Studying at distance
Studying at a distance involves preparing a comfortable study space and dedicating regular time for studying, even though the student works alone. Distance learning courses provide materials like textbooks online or through mail. An online learning platform gives students access to course materials, discussion boards, presentations, and assignment submission. The library offers online resources and document delivery. Assessments include essays, exams that can be taken locally, and a final dissertation with tutor feedback. Dedicated staff are available for student support and answering queries.

How to Create a More Engaging and Human Online Learning Experience
How to Create a More Engaging and Human Online Learning Experience Wahiba Chair Training & Consulting
Wahiba Chair's Talk at the 2024 Learning Ideas Conference. LAND USE LAND COVER AND NDVI OF MIRZAPUR DISTRICT, UP
This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems

Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
